They were at Magdala, alive and well, and were carefully guarded.

Plerge Magne has published a report on the financial condition and necessities ofthe Empire, and says :â€" 'The increased military preparation caused by the Luxemberg dispute imposed an unex~ pected burthen upon the resources of the cauntry, and though these preparations were long since abandoned with the termination ofzthe dispute, still they created a heavy deficit in the estimates of the past year. The mepert, in a guarded manner, admits that France may be held liable to pay the bonds oftlae Mexican empire which were guaran- teed by the Government, and declares a new loan is necessary. The amount proposed is $9,000,0001francs to be taken by public Mcfimion. The Chassepot rifles will probably be thrown out again, notwithstanding the boastful oflicial French reports, for it is now established beyond preadveuture that, while this weapon is almost unsurpassed so far as rapid firing is concerned, it gets out of order, on an average, after thirteen shots have been fired. Moreover, the experience ofthe massacre of Montana. has proved that the balls of the Chassepot rifles inflict few mortal wounds, & break surprising few bones For all these reasons it is believed that the Chassepot rifles now on hand in the French arsenals will be given to the National Guard, while the regular army will receive Carter rifles. London, England, is estimated by the Registchenei-al to have, at the present time, apopulntion of about 3,126,636. It covers an area. of 77,907 acres giving not much more than 40 persnns to the acre. Liverpool with a computed population for the present year of 500,676, has 98 persons living on every acre; while Manchester, with 366,835 has 818. In some of the other large English tawns the density of popula- tion ls mucn less. Newcastle has only 23,9 while Sheffield has merely a small fraction above ten. London is larger than any ten ofthe rest of English cities by 809,082. It is six times as large as Liverpool, and four times as large as Liverpool and Leeds together.

It is all very well for certain individuals to descant upon “ the manliness of going forward and recording your vote for the man of your choice, fearless of any locker on,” and more such grand hif'alutin; but do we not see, at every poll, men carefully watching how this and that man votes, and when he has done so. he is marked by some of the pimps of party, and per- haps insulted before he leaves the polling booth; it'he is under any pecuniary obâ€" ligation to any of' those who have voted on the opposite ticket, he. is, 1i' :1 poor ‘ man particularly, reminded of his ‘ indebtedness, and requested to provide 1for its liquidation,â€"in other instances, neighbours, who take opposite views of, the merits of the various candidates,‘ become cold and distant towards each other, and frequently come to seri- ous misunderstandings. \Ve believe the ballot is the best remedy to meet these evils,â€"it would place the honest poor voter in a position to exercise his elective franchise in accordance with his convic- tions, without being under the appre- hension of incurring the displeasure of those who would desire to inconvenience him for voting in opposition to their, wishes.

Last year we had the happiness of listening, with pleasure, to the eloquent discourse of Rev. M. A. Fergusson, on “ Conversation.” Those who heard him were much delighted with his address, his beautiful delivery, and his thorough knowledge of the subject he so ably treated. Those who were not present to hear him Were sorry, and, no doubt, they will be happy to find that another oppor- tunity of hearing him will be afforded them on Friday, the 7th of February, at 8 o'clock, in the Temperance Hall, in this village, when the subject will be “the Settlement of Canada.” All true Canadians will be glad to hear him lecture on a subject which has been the innocent inquiry of Childhood's days, and the lawful pride of riper yearsâ€"the commencement, growth and progress of our present, glorious Dominion. After the lecture a grand Concert will take place. The Patterson Brass Band will be present to render the evening's enjoy- ment still more pleasing; also, some of the best vocalists from the city of Toronto, whose cfliciency is well known, to all.

In the front, very little was carried away ; some» few dollars in coppers and an over coat.

FARM TO RENT! At the Lumber Yard FOR the information many ofmy fellowâ€" farmers are asking for, respecting the Drill and Drilling, I can but give my in- dividual opinion, ie the penny saved is a. penny gained. Half bushel of wheat and other grain in proportion per acre is an item, and the seed is deposited directly into moisture; also, at a uniform depth, and. covered consequently every seed germinates. grows, and matures alike, therefore I find’ it a protection againstdrought, &C. I have used a cultivator and drill combined, called the Farmer’s Friend (which deposit the grain in 3 different position to :ordinary Drills, not so condensed in the row) for two years, and feel satisfied of its advantages, and wuen all is considered and understood concerning the drill, it must appear almost without experiment. if properly managed a. great benefit to Canadian farmers, as well as in England, and other countries where all kinds of grain and seeds are drilled; there is much to be laid on the subject, but. a. few hints will do just now, the best proot is a trial, r HE Sunscriber offers to ran! his Farm for a term of Years. being lot No. 23. in the rear of the 3rd concussion of Markham. and klnwn as Victoria Square, Markham, Jan. 24. 1898. store RICHMOND HILL HOTEH!
